Been away from the WMHD scene for a while with work and an ongoing 40K league ... but slowly finding time to get games played again - and with new factions added to my collection :-) bringing my Legion to the table against my friend's Minion list.

Turn 01 and 02

A cluster fudge develops as the supporting cast from both Legion and Minions collide at a choke-point near the center of the table. Legion has a temporary advantage though as the pair of Razor Boars and a Bone Swarm are removed as casualties...



Turn 03 and 04

...then Minions attempt to turn the table to their advantage, sending the Farrows and a War Hog forward - along with the remaining Bone Swarm. This bloody engagement reduces the Gatormen Posse unit down to one model, but it also leaves the Hex Hunters nearly unchecked as they are able to better position themselves...



Turn 05

...Bethayne opens the turn by melding with Belphagor ( Spiny Growth ) and using her feat. The Bolt Thrower uses its animus to fly to the opposite side of the obstruction and hits Midas - pushing the Warlock back a few inches and scoring a few points of damage ( Midas keeps his two Fury for transfers ) Then the Hex Hunters advance and take full advantage of their Hex Bolts plus Litany of Everblight = Midas is quickly stripped of his Fury then removed as a casualty shortly after.



Thanks for a good game, Rafael !
